My Summary
Rated Outstanding 2024!!
About Me
We are moving to the B90 area soon!
Contact us for childcare after the Easter break in April 2025!
I am a fun-loving individual and and am a proud mother of two beautiful boys aged 9 and 12. I am relocating from Bradford where I successfully ran Little Bundles for 2 academic years. I was rated Outstanding by Ofsted in 2024 and the inspector was particularly impressed with how well I knew the children in my care and the level of progress that they were all making from their starting points.
Our property in B90 is currently being renovated for us to move in to where I endeavour to reopen and re-create a child friendly, stimulating and engaging environment where I can work to develop young minds and help them to make optimum progress. I aim to provide a home away from home for children between 6 months and 5 years.
When a child joins Little Bundles, I will first understand their needs and work with parents to to help them to consistently make progress from their starting points. I will share photos and videos with parents so they can partake in their child's development. I provide timely snacks and meals (packed lunches) to encourage positive eating habits as well as opportunities for them to rest or sleep as appropriate.
Previous parents have left fantastic reviews for us that we are very grateful for... please do have a read when you get a chance, I look forward to meeting you.
My Experience
I have been working as an Early Years Practitioner from my Bradford home since Sept 2022. Before childminding, I worked as a qualified teacher for 23 years and love working with children of all ages. I have been in middle and senior leadership roles for the majority of my career and have worked with various teams to meet the needs of our children. I have learnt a great deal whilst working with children and aim to use my knowledge and experience to provide a happy and loving environment for children within my home to give them a secure, stimulating and positive start to life in which they can develop and meet their best potential

Shazya has been looking after my 2 year old for nearly a month now and she has been really great with him. We had separation anxiety to begin with but she's done a wonderful job settling him. The pictures and updates throughout the day really helped me feel at ease too and allahamdulillah he's all smiles when he comes home. Previously I have used nursery with my other children but I was reassured by the ofsted rating, warm welcome fabulous care & halal food option! Would recommend little bundles to others.

We and what most imported our girl ,are very happy that we found Shazya. It was very hard to find childminder who can pick up and offer after school care from St.Anthony Catholic Primary School in Shipley.And then we found Shazya..Our girl enjoys being there. She also loves the meals. Because Shazya is also a teacher she is spending time with our girl to make her read some books and count numbers.

Aaahhh Beata… thank you so much for your kind words. We absolutely love working with your daughter as she has a lovely warm personality and is always caring and polite with everyone. She is making great progress in her reading and while working with numbers and we look forward to watching her grow… Thank you for trusting us with your little girl… 🤩
My 8 month old son has been attending childcare for just over a month. He struggled with separation and shazya and her assistants have helped change that massively. They got him into a good routine with a lot of effort from their part. He now happily goes there twice a week with minimal crying. The communication with photos and messages helps reassure me as a parent. Auntie shazya is an amazing child minder very relaxed. I would recommend her and her team to anyone.

Aaahhh Holly, that is so lovely… we absolutely love having your little one with us and are really proud of him as he has adjusted to his very first setting really well… He is thriving at Little Bundles and enjoying the social opportunities available… Looking forward to watching him grow…😍
My (almost) 10 month old has been coming to Little Bundles for over a month now. He is well cared for and well fed and I get regular updates and pictures throughout the day. He attends 5 days a week and absolutely loves it. He is always stimulated and plays with toys and books throughout his stay. When I pick him up the older children are practicing their writing skills which is also great to see for when he grows up. I’m hoping that he will be able to stay with Little Bundles until he goes to school as he learns a new skill every day. He gets delicious food every day including curry, home made chapati and pasta. We call Shazya his auntie and she certainly treats him as if he was family ❤️
